Spartan Newspaper Annual Christmas Drive!!

For the ninth year in a row, students at VTSU Castleton are raising money to provide a better Christmas for area children in need. More than $10,000 has been raised over the past eight years, and members of the Castleton Spartan student newspaper are at it again this year with a $1,200 goal.  The money will be used to buy a mix of necessities and toys that their parents say they need/want. The children are chosen by VAC staff as those most in need. Spartan students raise the money, shop for the desired gifts, wrap them, then host a party at VAC for the kids and their parents. Any help is appreciated!  Donate at this link!!

Tutor.com: Ready to Chat!

Here at Academic Support, we’re proud of our partnership with Tutor.com. Without replacing our in-person tutoring services, it allows us to help students when they need assistance. And while some people fear that Tutor.com offers an impersonal service, the new Talk Function will ensure that students can speak directly to their tutor.  To access Tutor.com for free, click on the Tutor.com link on the left side of your course’s Canvas page. To use the Talk function, select Chat with Voice on the page titled Connect with a Tutor Now. Of course, we also recognize the value of one-on-one assistance.
